Massage for Community Care

Picture
What if touch could be a simple, everyday way to care for one another?

Massage for Community Care (MFCC) is an 8-week, hands-on workshop series that helps everyday people build the confidence and skills to offer nurturing, consent-centered touch in their relationships and communities.

Many of us live touch-hungry lives. Safe, caring touch is often limited to healthcare settings, paid services, or romantic relationships — leaving many people with few ways to experience supportive connection in everyday life.

MFCC offers another path.

Together, we learn simple massage and nurturing touch practices that can:
  • reduce isolation
  • support nervous system regulation
  • deepen trust and connection
  • strengthen our capacity to care for one another

This is not about becoming a professional massage therapist. It’s about learning how to show up for the people in your life with more presence, clarity, and care.

MFCC is rooted in anti-oppressive and non-extractive values. We recognize how power, access, and social conditioning shape our experiences of touch and the body. Here, we practice care in ways that center consent, agency, and mutual respect.

If you’re curious whether MFCC is a good fit, our FAQs walk through participation, accessibility, and what the series is like.
